[EDIT: sorry, D; as you can now read, Monte, as predicted, handled this much better...]

Re: Reel to reel question |
Hey, Tell! While I've been delighted to read your once-again frequent contributions, whatever happened to your resolution to spend less time here? Are you like the Lindsey Lohan of LMA rehab? Or has this already been chewed over in a topic I missed?

Re: Reel to reel question |
Hey Lou--fair question, and yes, as Capn Cook and others noted, there was/is a DEFN air of "Brett Favre" about it (ahem, I prefer that over Lohan!).
We have covered it in MANY threads, BUT I can't seem to shake the mishandling of it all (ie, that it came off as "I am gone" when I really meant "I'll be here for FaceBook moments only").
If you happen to re-read it, in that spirit, I've stuck to "it"; I have NOT listened to ANY DEAD for > six months, and largely, I stopped "playing PM" (whatever that ever was) in the sense of checking in EVERY day, feeling compelled to welcome each newbie, compelled to attempt to moderate/mitigate/etc with various "issues" that come up here.
I think the old regulars, while enjoying a good jab at me for the whole biz (it was a bit over the top/self centered/etc), would confirm "yup, Tell is here EVERY day droning on about his pathetic life and his lizard sniffing dogs, and chatting up the ladies--there are a bunch now afterall--but he only talks about the DEAD in the past-tense, and doesn't review shows, or any of the stuff that this Forum was meant to facilitate"
I am defn posting in bursts, when the physical situation has me stuck at the puter, like right now, ice packs, heating pad, and work on the side.
